Feedback for Editors

I think there needs to be a thread where CC essay editors are reviewed by the prospective applicants who sought their help. These reviews would ideally focus solely on the speed and quality of each editor so as to give CCers a fair, balanced view.

It would not only allow prospective applicants a reference for editors, but also give editors a chance to establish and build credibility within the CC community.

Thank you for your help wayward_trojan! Got back to me in exactly one week during peek periods. Suggestions were excellent and I followed them all. I've searched CC and have not found another person who reads essays that look to be as trustworthy as you are.

Glad to be of service! Be mindful, there are other experienced editors out there too. The main point is to shop around and get second, third, and fourth opinions so you can get a sense of how deeply/thoroughly each editor will engage your writing; and then share your reaction with the CC community so everyone can get an idea of who is legit and who isn't.

threads are like candlelight fires. it's good when they're on but when they get snuff out due to inactivity or something happens, it's hard to reconstruct everything so a more stable solution would be nice so illumination remains for everyone not just the people who are fast enough to act earlier. it's just my two cents to make things more transparent and easier for people to find information. james
